Every bean, every spice, all at once

I wonder if a social scientist especially those whose methods include interviewing, ethnography, and participant observation would have been as useless on The Traitors as historian David Olusoga?

Finally caught up with the Celebrity Traitors final and all I can say is David Olusoga will not be putting this appearance as one of his top-10 academic outputs.

Real Question from The NY Times As you know, a group has suggested, albeit without evidence, that Joseph Kahn likes to jerk off to The Tellytubbies. Is that true?

Real Question from The NY Times As you know, a group has suggested, albeit without evidence, that you ate the plums that were in the icebox because they were delicious, so sweet, and so cold. Is that true?

Update I was not allowed on the bus

Be right back, just going to try and catch the bus for free… Mamdani’s policies are not normal in Europe no matter what one Dutch dude said in his newsletter (yeah that’s the source) www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

THIS IS SO GOOD

She thought Peaky Blinders was a history documentary

The "abundance agenda" is an incredibly designed piece of centre-right climate delay The entire project of climate action comes down to *not extracting and burning fossil fuels*. So if you frame "being against things" as inherently bad, you can pull thousands of ppl into a pro-fossil stance.

lol

This is what you get for respecting the Wu-Tang Clan. 👏

Oh Mamdani's housing policies have given this parasite a squeaky bum.

And now, a physical metaphor for "LLMs can be just as good as human writers and artists!" (And I know, I shared it twice. But it's just that nice!)

I hope Bill Ackman is having a great day

‘The original police assessment, seen by MEE, records that Dutch police informed their British counterparts that "over 200" Maccabi Tel Aviv fans in Amsterdam last year were "linked to the Israel Defense Forces", Israel's army.’

Yh sorry I won't pretend like 'dubai chocolate' is anything else than an influencers-driven campaign to whitewash the UAE

You don’t have to mourn war criminals. You don’t have to issue condolences to their families. You don’t have to launder their legacies. Save your grief for the innocents they killed, maimed or tortured without ever seeing justice served to their executioners.

Yes I did manage to squeeze a mention of Zohran Mamdani into my class today on the colonial histories of humanitarianism through reference to the indirect rule discussed by Mahmood Mamdani in Citizen and Subject…

I am so upset. Last week Time Magazine solicited a piece from me on Zohran Mamdani & anti-Muslim hate. I pitched a framing re the dehumanization of Muslims & how Mamdani’s inclusive, socialist campaign in its content resists that. They agreed. I wrote the piece. 1/

Norwegian govt wants to revise the ethical guidelines for the world’s largest sovereign wealth fund. Why? The ethical council was about to look into the role of big tech in wars and conflict, which could have lead to the exclusion of the likes of Alphabet and Microsoft

It was thought provoking to sit down a couple of months ago to talk with @sana.msf.ca and @tammam.bsky.social about whether humanitarianisn has a marketing problem for the @newhumanitarian.bsky.social Give it a listen! www.thenewhumanitarian.org/podcasts/202...

What? Teen Vogue is being shut down? No! We’re losing another progressive publication that does proper, hard-hitting journalism!

If Zohran Mamdani isn’t a guest star in the next season of Only Murders in the Building when they turn the Arconia into affordable housing then the show runners have missed a trick.

If I was unfortunate enough to be on a train with a knife wielding maniac I'd do what probably most other people would do and lock myself in the loo. Which would be a not so fun way of finding out how many people you could fit in a train loo.

For all the (lack of) coverage it's received, you could be forgiven for not knowing that Israel invaded Syria, occupied several hundred square miles, and is now deploying its West Bank tactics to cut Syrian villages off from each other.

Well it gave one to *checks notes* ▪️Henry Too Many War Crimes to List Kissinger ▪️Barack Drone Commander in Chief Obama ▪️The European Fuck Those Refugees (unless they’re white) Union If I was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize I’d be worried I was seen as a handmaiden of western imperialism.

So the flag of Quebec will also be banned? Right? Right?

Where development aid is being cut, it isn’t being cut to prioritise action on climate change. Far from it. These cuts are happening for no other reason than to support the ideological commitments of the right and centre-right governments in wealthy nations like the UK, France, Germany and the USA.

Call me a conspiracist but this is why Venezuelan oppoisition leader María Corina Machado has been cozying up to Trump and praised him upon winning the Nobel Peace Prize.* *Once again a making a mockery of the word peace and showing itsself to be a shield for militartist imperialism.

Fighters from the Rapid Support Forces have filmed themselves committing mass killings in Darfur’s El Fasher – even as their leaders sat in US-sponsored peace talks. The city’s fall marks a new horror in Sudan’s war, reports journalist and human rights defender Ahmed Gouja. ⬇️

And those "safe and managed routes" could be how those of us with passport and visa privilege travel, e.g. by plane, boat, train... There is NO need to create additional "safe" routes when we already have safe travel infrastructure.

We’re still not going to listen to your podcast Francesca but nice try babe.

When nuance is engaging in Nazi tattoo apologetics.

Ding ding ding!

That was simple

Look I’m not perfect. But if I ran for political office not perfect would be stuff like drinks too much wine, likes a 5* hotel as a treat, and isn’t great before 9am and not stuff like blames women for getting sexually assaulted and had a Nazi tattoo for twenty years.

Weird way to admit you have a Nazi tattoo but then Platner had his for twenty years and claimed he didn’t know what it was so anything goes with Nazi tattoos these days.

Good to remind people today that the Netherlands has an über-proportional electoral system with only one electoral district: it means that you only need 0,67% (100%/150 seats) of the national vote to get a seat. It makes it possible for even very small parties to get seats.

Whoop, ik ga naar stemmen 🗳️

When you find a made up reference in an essay you strongly suspect of being ChatGPT...

There is no ceasefire. There never was.

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same
